We create a qualitatively inclusive society, for all Frail People
Our effort focuses on Life Sciences, Biotechnology and Safe Applications for Frail People.
With the support of our partners, we carry out basic, translational, applied pre-industrial and industrial research projects.
We aim to turn our research findings into a concrete plan, project or product design, to create or improve products, production processes or services.
The ultimate goal is to create aids, prosthetic products, supports, rehabilitation and re-training strategies, innovative teaching methodologies, social integration tools, skill maintenance/retrieval and autonomy for the elderly, the sensory, motor, cognitive and mentally disabled people.
We contribute to the generation and sharing of innovative solutions in the field of Life Sciences, since they hold strategic importance for the competitiveness of each country’s economic system.
Innovation regarding products and processes aimed at improving individual and collective quality of the frail people’s lives is crucial, since it concerns the ability to face the accessibility and definition of care and the sustainability of the health care system, affected by demographic change (with the increasing average life expectancy) and unpredictable and sudden events (such as pandemics).
